Enterprise hosting,
run by people.
Managed infrastructure for organisations that cannot afford to gamble on uptime — dedicated private cloud, hardened networking and SLA-backed operations, designed, built and run by our own engineers from a Tier III certified Manchester data centre. No shared tenancy, no offshored support tier, no data leaving the UK.
What “enterprise” actually means here
Enterprise is one of the emptiest words in hosting. Plenty of providers apply it to the same shared platform with a bigger invoice attached. It is worth being specific about what changes.
It means single tenancy: your compute is yours, not a slice of a box you share with strangers whose traffic spikes become your problem. It means the people who designed your platform are the people who operate it, and the people who answer at 3am — one in-house UK team, not a first-line script in another timezone. And it means your infrastructure and your data physically stay in our Manchester facility, under UK law.
It also means we will tell you when you do not need it. A workload that runs happily on a £20 VPS should run on a £20 VPS.
The enterprise line
Six services we already run in production, deployed on their own or combined into one managed platform. All are quote-based, because sizing them properly means understanding the workload first.
Private Cloud
100% dedicated compute with resilient ZFS storage and LACP networking — a hyper-converged platform with no shared tenancy, built for regulated workloads.
Private cloudFailover Replication
Virtual machines mirrored continuously with zero-touch automated failover, so a dead host is not a 3am phone call. Works for legacy stacks and control panels too.
High availabilityManaged Firewalls
Juniper and pfSense appliances, physical or virtual, optionally stacked and redundant. We author, review and maintain the ruleset — you are not handed a console and wished luck.
Firewall protectSecure OOB Access
A full /24 of private management addressing over an encrypted overlay, reaching any port on any interface — without exposing a single management page to the internet or burning public IPv4.
Out-of-band accessBusiness VPN
Managed WireGuard gateways connecting teams, offices and cloud over modern encrypted tunnels. We handle peer provisioning and key management; nothing routes through a third party.
Business VPNCloud Antispam
Clustered, highly available mail filtering built on Proxmox Mail Gateway — inbound and outbound, auditable rather than a sealed black box, and hosted entirely in the UK.
Email securityBring your own hardware, or let us build it
Not every enterprise estate wants a managed platform. If you already own the kit, colocation puts it in our rack on our network, with remote hands when you need them. If you want the machine but not the compromise of a stock build, custom bare metal is specified to your requirements and racked single-tenant.
The three approaches mix. It is normal for an estate to run a private cloud for production, colocated hardware for something that cannot be virtualised, and a replicated pair for the database underneath it all.
Data sovereignty is a design decision, not a checkbox
If your data sits with a US-headquartered provider, it is reachable under the US CLOUD Act regardless of which region you picked in their console. For a lot of UK organisations — public sector, healthcare, legal, finance, anyone holding personal data they are accountable for — that is a governance problem they inherited without choosing it.
Everything we run for you is hosted in our Manchester facility on infrastructure we own, operated by staff in the UK, under UK law. The mail filtering is our own Proxmox Mail Gateway cluster rather than a foreign SaaS. The management network is private. When you need to evidence where data lives and who can reach it, the answer is short and it is checkable.
How an enterprise engagement runs
Quote-based does not mean slow or vague. It means we size it properly before anyone commits.
-
Scope
We go through the workload, the uptime target, the recovery objectives and any compliance obligations you have to evidence. If something you are asking for will not actually help, this is where we say so.
-
Design
You get a proposed architecture with the reasoning attached — what is single-tenant, what is replicated, where the failure domains sit, and what it costs to run. Written down, so it can be reviewed by someone who was not in the call.
-
Build and migrate
We build the platform and move you onto it. Migration from your current provider is planned as part of the project rather than left to you at the end.
-
Operate
The same team runs it: monitoring, patching, firewall policy, replication health and capacity. You keep one escalation path to engineers who already know your estate.
Where it runs
A Tier III certified data centre in Manchester, on our own AS215262 network — multi-homed and LINX-peered, so UK users reach you over short paths rather than via London and back.
We are a RIPE Local Internet Registry, which means addressing and routing are ours to manage rather than something we rent from an upstream and have to ask permission to change.
One team,
from design to 3am.
The engineer who designs your platform is the engineer who racks it, and the one who answers when something needs attention. There is no handover to a support tier that has never seen your estate.
- In-house UK NOC — no offshored first line, no ticket triage by script.
- Hardware we own, racked by our own engineers in our own hall.
- Firewall policy, replication health and capacity managed as part of the service.
- One escalation path to people who already know how your estate is built.

Talk to an architect, not a form
Tell us the workload, the uptime target and the compliance posture you have to satisfy. We will design the platform, tell you honestly what it needs, and quote it.
